"...In this Schubert recital, [von Otter] sings with such variety and involvement that she wins me over completely. 'Was ist Silvia,' she asks rhetorically in the first song we hear, and the rapturous wonder in her voice is just perfect. The words everywhere are subtly colored and crisply enunciated...I haven't been so moved by a performance of 'Dass sie hier gewesen' in years...Highly recommended." -Lucano, Fanfare
